Chapter 1471 1473【Liancheng Jue】
Huairou Film and Television City, the crew of "Liancheng Jue".
After turning on the camera, the shooting went smoothly.
With Xiang Nan in charge, everyone was very attentive and did not dare to play tricks.
With everyone working together, the shooting went smoothly.
However, it is not completely without problems.
The biggest problem is lack of experience.
How to set up the scenery, how to shoot the photography, how to use the lighting, how to perform the actors, how to play the action... In Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television dramas, this has already been a certain paradigm.
For example, in Huang Rihua's version of "Dragon and Babu", when heroes battle Shaolin Temple, Qiao Feng's appearance is a very typical way of hero appearance.
All the heroes are here, all eyes are on you, at a critical moment, Chief Qiao flies in the air, a qigong wave explodes, standing proudly on the spot, and then all the supporting characters look sideways, shouting to Chief Qiao...what a sight.
However, the mainland lacks relevant experience, so it has to be gradually explored in order to make a good film.
In order to gain experience quickly, Xiang Nan specially invited Wuzhi Yuanbin from Xiangjiang.
He is one of the Seven Little Fortunes, and he has worked as a martial arts instructor for films such as "New Dragon Inn", "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East", "The Deer and Ding Tale", "God of Gamblers 2", "Once Upon a Time in the Lion King", etc. Have a certain strength.
Moreover, what he is good at is the style of martial arts, which is more realistic. Although "Liancheng Jue" has the miraculous inner strength of Shenzhaojing that can bring people back to life, it is still a low-level martial arts world in essence. Compared with whether the internal strength is profound or not, it pays more attention to the competition of moves, so it is more appropriate to invite Yuan Bin to direct.
…
When the TV series started filming, the script originally prepared a martial arts replacement for Xiang Nan.
Wan Zhenshan still had some martial arts scenes, and they were afraid that Xiang Nan would not be able to handle it.
But I didn't expect that Xiang Nan would actually play in person, and he played well, which surprised Yuan Bin and Wu Yue, let alone other people.
"Master Cheng, have you practiced kung fu before?" Wu Yue asked curiously.
"When I was young, I learned a little from the uncle next door." Xiang Nan nodded and said.
"You are not a bit." Wu Yue waved his hand and smiled.
Others can't tell that he is a professional martial arts practitioner. He once won the national martial arts championship. It can be seen that Xiang Nan is a good kungfu. When shooting martial arts action, every move is just right. If it weren't for a good kung fu, it would never be so perfect.
Like Chen Hao, Jiang Qinqin, Ni Dahong and others, they have never learned martial arts before, but they just studied for two months before shooting. Therefore, it is all about embroidering fists and legs, and when filming scenes, I often make mistakes.
Xiang Nan smiled slightly, his kung fu is indeed amazing.
Although Wu Yue is a national martial arts champion, he practiced mostly moves, which are different from real fights. And Xiang Nan inherited Ip Man's Wing Chun, which can really kill people.
But it's not worth showing off. Now that the world is peaceful, he doesn't need to kill people.
Wu Yue saw that Xiang Nan was obviously good at kung fu, but he was not ostentatious or ostentatious, and he couldn't help being very infected, and lost a lot of frivolity.
And Xiang Nan filmed fight scenes, and played in person, without a substitute.
In this way, it is naturally helpful to improve the quality of the episodes.
Unlike some dramas, the actors have to stand in for every scene. Literary plays have literary substitutes, martial arts have martial arts substitutes, lore plays have naked substitutes, and kiss plays have kiss substitutes. Even rolling on the ground and falling somersaults are all done by doubles.
With so many stand-ins used in filming, the quality of the series will definitely not be good.
Because acting is a two-way communication process, although the play is fake, the feelings are sincere. No matter how good an actor is, he still needs the cooperation and stimulation of his opponents to show his ideal acting skills.
If a stand-in is used for filming, the performance of the opponent will definitely be limited, which will affect the quality of the episode.
Moreover, when using a body double, you can only use the telephoto lens, and you cannot shoot the face, which will also have a certain impact on the shooting.
Driven by Xiang Nan, the crew of "Liancheng Jue" participated in the battle in person, which is naturally good for improving the quality of the series.
…
During the filming of "Liancheng Jue", many people from other crews also came to visit the set.
One thing, Kylin Films is a giant in the mainland entertainment industry. It is very good at movies and TV series, and its reputation is quite high. Such a company, whoever wants to make a name for themselves in the mainland entertainment industry, would not want to build a personal network;
Secondly, Xiang Nan is the richest Chinese man, and he is also at the top of the list of the world's richest people. No one wants to get to know such a big man. In case of fate, just give me some advice, and it will be enough to benefit you for a lifetime.
For example, Feng Xiaogang was just an art assistant back then. Since following Xiang Nan, he has been on the rise all the way, and now he is the second brother who is well-known in the mainland film industry, only slightly inferior to Zhang Yimou.
Regarding everyone's class visit, Xiang Nan didn't put on airs. If he had time, he was willing to chat, take pictures, and sign autographs.
Because those who dare to visit the class are mostly famous in the circle. For example, Su Youpeng, Lin Zhiying, Jiao Enjun, Lu Liangwei, etc. may have opportunities for cooperation in the future, and it is not worth rejecting people thousands of miles away.
As for those who have no name or surname, they dare not come to disturb Xiang Nan. Even if they dared, the crew would not let it go.
Of course, compared to these male actors, Xiang Nan prefers to communicate with those female stars.
For example, the actress Xiao Qiang in "Little Li Fei Dao". Xiao Qiang is known as the number one beauty in Taiwan. After seeing the real person, Xiang Nan didn't think she was as amazing as the legend. On the contrary, Chen Hao and Jiang Qinqin are much prettier than her.
However, Xiao Qiang is more seductive and provocative, crazy and flirtatious, and especially good at making people happy. The so-called "Jie Yu Hua" is nothing more than that, so Xiang Nan thinks it is worth the money.
There is also Weng Hong, the actress in "Dharma", and Chen Derong, the heroine of "Peerless Two Pride". Xiang Nan liked their film and television dramas very much before.
…
In August, after the filming of "Liancheng Jue" was completed at the Feiteng film and television base, it was time to go to the snow mountain to shoot the location. Because there is no role for Xiang Nan, he will not go.
Besides, the filming of this drama took three months, and the director Wang Wenjie already has some experience, so there is no need for him to stare at it all the time.
In addition to "Lian Cheng Jue", in 1999, Kylin Films also invested in Feng Xiaogang's "A Sigh". This script is adapted from Wang Yi's novel "Worried".
Feng Xiaogang prepared to make this movie two years ago. But in 1997, Wang Yi was boycotted by public opinion, and the novels, scripts, and essays he wrote could not be used, which brought the preparation of "A Sigh" to a standstill.
Now that two years have passed, I dare not say that the situation has calmed down, at least the resistance is not so strong. So Feng Xiaogang took the time to shoot "A Sigh".
Although Feng Xiaogang has always acted like a common man, most of his movies are commercial ones. But in essence, he still has artistic pursuits.
In real life, he has filmed "Tangshan Earthquake", "Assembly", "Youth", "Mobile Phone", "Night Banquet", "I'm Not Pan Jinlian", "1942", "Only Yun Knows" etc., are all tragic, literary films.
In comparison, his comedies are actually only five. Xiang Nan felt that he had misjudged Feng Xiaogang before.
